website of deirdre carabine and michel lejeune

Welcome to our website!

We are retired educationalists working in Uganda and living in Bbunga, a quiet Kampala suburb on the shores of Lake Victoria with our canines Suubi (a rescue -- the name means "hope"), Luna (aka Little Miss Moon, another rescue), and Mister Finlay a young Swiss White Shepherd.

We spent the past quarter of a century involved in university building, including starting the first online-only university in Sub-Saharan Africa, the Virtual University of Uganda.

Our website includes some of the personal projects we are working on, for example the Carabine family tree and the blog Jacana Days which tells the story of beginning our work in Uganda at Nkozi.
